Oh my.... yay!

Okay, these are simply too fabulous!! Now if only my pocketbook could justify purchasing them at that price....

Mad Men Barbies

Squish

It was one of those mornings where I was kind of rushing around... flustered somewhat after it took me another 10 mintues to try and put my eyes in my head. I'm amazed I haven't torn or lost them yet, to be honest. Yesterday morning I was attempting to put a contact in when I dropped it and the thing fell on Uzi's back, which actually probably saved the thing and made it super easy to find. Thankfully he stood still and I managed to grab it.

Anyway, I was rushing around this morning and hastily making myself a peanut butter and jelly sandwich (yes, I'm 6) and Josh was by the sink and he looked over at me and smiled and kind of chuckled, so I asked him, "What?" and he said he had a "Heather moment." Hmm? He said watching me make my sandwich made him imagine us in the future when we have kids. I'll most likely be rushing around still, only with a row of bread lined up. :p It sent me off to work with a smile. I often have those moments where I'll be watching him and imagine our future family (hence the "Heather moment"). Ah, bliss.

On another note - hooray wedding dress! It is here, and currently hiding in our closet in a garbage bag. :p Yeah, yeah, I forgot to buy a garment bag, so one is on the way. Ha ha.

March Already!?

After several years, I have finally decided to give contact lenses a go. It's day 3 and things are still a bit odd - a litte blurry and I feel like I have something in my eye - oh wait, I do have something in my eye! I think I'm progressing - it only took 10 minutes to get the little buggers in this morning. I also found a much better technique when it comes to taking them out than what I was shown. I tried the way everyone told me until I literally couldn't force myself to keep my eyes open and they were bright red, and then I tried this other method, and out they popped! Thank you handy dandy pamphlet! Considering that up until a week ago it would take at least two people to get eye drops into my eye, I'd say this huge progress. I was getting tired of glasses (getting smudged, glares, fogging up in cold weather) and I don't want to wear glasses when we get married, so I'm determined to make the contact lenses work. I'm nearsighted, but without glasses, I could barely read the E at the top of eye chart, so I require aid when driving, and if I just want to be able to see people, which is kind of nice to be able to do. :p So hooray and here's to sticking foreign objects in one's eye!

Other than that this weekend, we did some wedding shopping and picked up some items for the reception. Thank you, Ikea! Aside from a mini panic attack due to getting completely turned around in major crowds, I think it went quite well. I definitely don't like the layout of the store, though. Oh well, it ended up being a good trip, and I'm sure we'll be back. Even though some things are really cheaply made, they do have a lot of what seem to be high quality items as well. Sadly, when we move we will no longer be in close distance to one. Yay roadtrip! Now if we only had a vehicle with more trunk space... :p

Ellingson Car Museum

Okay, well that last link I had listed didn't work, so here's the link to my website instead with pictures from our trip to the Ellingson Car Museum.

Pictures!

Finally pictures of our new rental!

New Surroundings

Unpacking Complete!

Well, I think we've officially unpacked and are having a few people over for dinner on Friday night in celebration. We'll most likely have a larger gathering a different weekend once I get even more in order. I still have a few piles here and there to work on, but it's definitely all coming together and as soon as my new camera arrives I shall be taking pictures of our new space for the next 6 months. :p I admit that I'm eager to grow some roots, so let's hope that our next move in 6 months (if all works out) will be a good opportunity to settle. I admit I feel like my biological clock has started ticking quite loudly, though it's a frightening prospect at the same time. I have worries and sometimes feel selfish because I wonder about what happens to our relationship when there's no longer just two of us, but three.

Anyhoo... pictures to come and new adventures and for once I'll start blogging regularly again for those who do stop by and read. ;)

6 months to go!

Yikes! We're getting married in 6 months! It has really started to hit me over the past few days. There is so much to do and I've only got the dress ordered - then come the alterations. I think I need to start making some phone calls and make sure we have our venues in order and someone to officiate and all that other crazy stuff. Ack!

Trader Joe's

I bought 4 bottles of wine for under $30 last night.

Trader Joe's... I love you.

Merry Christmas!

Eeek

It's been almost a month since I last made a post! We've been busy, busy, but haven't made any fun trips lately, though that will change this weekend when we go to a car museum, so lots of pictures there! We're going to be moving in January to our own place (finally!) so I'm sure I'll be even more busy in the weeks to come. Lots to update, though, hopefully!
